    Friendly instructor and cute cafe with lots of retro deco. Instructions were clear and help was available if needed. Great experience to do while in Istanbul rather than buying ready made lamps from the markets

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    Uns hat der Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen. Wir haben den Kurs für unsere Kinder (14, 11 und 7 Jahre) gebucht. Sie haben sich so toll amüsiert und einiges zum Thema Düfte gelernt. Der Kursleiter Tuna ein sehr netter und herzlicher Mensch. Er hat alles so toll erklärt und war immer offen auf alle Fragen der Kinder. Er hat sich so viel Zeit für die Kinder genommen. Wenn man bereits rein kommt, wird man von angenehm dezenten Düften begrüßt. Es finden auch andere Kurse statt wie zB Mosaikbilder. Weiter hinten ist dann der Café, mit der tollen Atmosphäre, leckeren Kaffee und anderen Köstlichkeiten. Ganz nette Menschen, die Kellner oder die anderen Kursleiter alle sind sehr herzlich. Wir werden definitiv nochmal einen anderen Kurs mit unseren Kindern buchen.

    это было отлично! очень увлекательно, нам рассказали историю Стамбула немного, про рисунки, про витражи. мастер всё подробно объясняла, помогала подбирать ребенку цвета. мы приятно общались все время мастер класса. нас угостили кофе и чаем. очень рекомендую провести один жаркий денёк в таком месте!

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Booked for my wife and daughter. They both enjoyed the class, the nice teacher and the 2 glass lamps they produced. And as a side note, me and my son got to try the passenger fairy (which only cost £1.50 and was so much better than the river cruise we had that cost 30 times as much the night before).

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    It was a fantastic experience to create our own mosaic lamps. Our host was also very lovely and kind. Also the location was really cute. The only thing we would criticize is that too many workshops were offered at the same time, leaving too little time for the individual groups. But all in all, it is really highly recommended and we would book the workshop again at any time.

    So much fun!! Everyone enjoyed it very much, one of the best parts of our vacation here. Results were beautiful because of the great help we got from the people there, and everyone is very happy with it. The guides were really friendly and they even gave us great recommendations for foods and places. 10/10 Would do another workshop (like mosaic lamps or parfume making) at this place again! Amazing!! A must do when you are in Istanbul!!!

    Traditional Stained Glass Painting Workshop review

    Lamp mosaic activity was the best activity we had in Istanbul. Everything was perfect. Ali and Mustapha were extremely kind and helpful. Ali took time advising us best places to visit in Istanbul. He was a great instructor. My kids enjoyed it. We are going to go again there for another activity. Ps: their homemade brownies are so delicious.

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    Te-ai întrebat vreodată cum poți captura o amintire, o emoție sau un moment special într-o sticlă? Acum ai șansa să înveți cum să creezi parfumul perfect, unic și personal, care îți reflectă personalitatea și stilul de viață. Acest workshop nu este doar o ocazie de a învăța tehnici și metode, ci o călătorie profundă în lumea subtilă a aromelor. Vei explora cum fiecare ingredient poate transforma o simplă esență într-o operă de artă. Ghidat de un expert parfumier ( D-nul Tuna , pe care-l și salutam cu ocazia aceasta) , vei învăța cum să alegi notele de bază, de mijloc și de vârf pentru a crea o compoziție echilibrată și armonioasă. În cadrul acestui atelier, nu vei crea doar un parfum – vei da naștere unei părți din tine, capturând în esență trăsăturile care te definesc. Fiecare picătură va spune o poveste unică. Parfumul meu , creat de mine astăzi l-am numit “ No name” , este unic și-l ador. Mulțumim întregii echipe, sunteți minunați și recomand tutor să vă treacă pragul cu bucurie

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    The best Turkish coffee workshop in Istanbul! 🇹🇷✨ I spent a wonderful afternoon learning the secrets of authentic coffee from the master Ali. ☕ From grinding the beans to fortune telling in the grounds, it was a 5-star experience! If you're in Üsküdar, don't miss this workshop! ps: even without the workshop, it's worth coming here just to have a coffee on their chill terrace.

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    This activity was one of the best things I’ve done during my travels. If you’re looking at booking it, just do it! Not only is this incredibly affordable for what you get (a beautiful lamp, guide through public transport if on European side, endless tea, coffee, water and biscuits), but the staff are amazing! So approachable, helpful, funny and entertaining. They create such a fun atmosphere and get everyone laughing and talking while creating their beautiful lamps!
